Side effects to stopping smoking by willpower alone - Rewards

What to expect if you stop smoking by willpower alone

Someone who tries to stop smoking by willpower alone, may find that they feel the need to devise rewards for themselves for stopping smoking.

When to expect it

If someone has tried to stop smoking by willpower alone, they may find themselves needing to give themselves incentives for continuing to refrain from smoking.  They may say that every week as a non-smoker, they’ll use the money they have saved by not smoking, by spending it on a treat for themselves.

Why does it happen?

You... consciously... know that it's a good idea to stop smoking.  If you stop smoking by willpower alone, it's only your conscious mind that knows this... your subconscious mind still wants to experience the benefits of smoking as it has before.  Buying yourself treats, or rewards, is simply the conscious minds attempting to give itself incentives to stop smoking. 

What you can do to help yourself

There are two main ways you can help this situation...

• Save the money you would have previously spent on smoking, and buy yourself a treat, but try to vary the rewards you give yourself - the novelty value of having the same thing every week will soon wear thin, and the effect will diminish.
   
• You could consider a session of stop smoking hypnotherapy with me! - See below for an explanation of why this will help.

Why my clients find it easier

The 'need' to smoke comes from the individual's subconscious mind, weighing up the benefits of smoking, against the benefits of not smoking. 

The stop smoking hypnotherapy session sets about to change the subconscious balance, so that the person has no desire to smoke, because their subconscious mind finds that the benefits of not smoking, greatly outweigh the benefits of smoking.

When this process happens, the mechanisms supporting these 'withdrawal symptoms' are no longer there.
